1t Has been Toilsome One, and She is
Glad it is Ended.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-No one welcomes
the adjournment of Congress more than
Mrs. Cleveland, as she is completely worn
out from her recent onerous social duties,
and wants few weeks undisturbed rest,
Since Lent began she has seen visitors with
whom she made appointments, and has
had piles Of dainty missives craving an
audience to look over and arrange for
every day. She has endeavored to see all
those who wished to meet her, and par
ticularly the ladies Of Senatorial and Con
gressional families who we've about to
leave town. Added to these has been the
remarkable influx of distinguished strangers
who have been presented by friends Taken
all in all, Mrs. Cleveland has had this
winter a fair intimation of how completely
people regard the lady of the White House
as being who has no right to svince the
least atigue, no matter how much she is
called upon to do, and her determination
to accede to ali the demands of her friends
has strengthened the agreeable impression
which so many thousands of her visitors
have carried with them this winter

REMEMBER BOYS MAKE MEN.

When you see ragged urchin
Standing wistful in the street.
With torn hat and kneeless trousers,
Dirty face and bare red feet,
Pass not by the child unheeding;
Smile on him. Mark me, when
He's grown up he'll not forget it;
For, remember, boys make men,
When the buoyant youthful spirits
Overflow in boyish freak,
Glide your child in gentle accents;
Do not in your anger speak.
You must SOW in youthful bosoms
Seeds of tender mercy; then
Plants will grow and bear good fruitage,
When the erring boys are men.
Have you never seen grandsire,
With his eyes aglow with JOY,
Bring to mind some act of kindness,
Something said to him, a boy?
Or relate some slight or GOODNESS,
With brow all clouded, when
He said they were too thoughtless
To remember boys made men?
Let us try to add some pleasure
To the life of every boy,
For each child needs tender interest
In Its sorrow and its Joy.
Call your boy home by its brightness:
They avoid a gloomy den,
Seeking elsewhere joy and comfort;
And remember, boys make men.

WALT WHITMAN remembers meeting
Gen. Taylor in New Orleans about
forty years ago, and found him in
civilians clothes, "a jovial, old, rather
stout. plain man with a wrinkled and
dark-yellow face, and in ways and man
ner the least of conventional ceremony
OF etiquette I ever saw; he laughed I'M
restrainedly at everything comical He
had great personal resemblance to
Fenimore Cooper, the novelist"

The suit of "Doc" Wilson against
Philip L. Moen, of Worcester, Mass,
has been dropped at the formers re-
quest. This ends a celebrated case,
wherein the defendant protests that
he is innocent of the dishonorable acts
charged by the plaintiff, and yet con-
fesses to having paid many thousands
of dollars to Wilson as hush money,
but refuses to divulge the reasons
therefor. There is a woman in the
case, according to Wilson, but she is
a most uncertain quantity. Moen de-
MES this, but the fact remains that he
thought Wilson's silence was worth the
price paid, upward of $4,000. Al
though the Worcester manufacturer
practically wins the suit, it will not
cause the majority of people to think
that he was made the innocent victim
of a Matchmaking scheme.

VERDI, the great composer. is also a
great patriot. In the dark days of
thirty or forty years ago there was no
more ardent champion of Italian liber-
ty and union than he. He was elected
to Parliament in 1861, and took deep
interest in all its operations. But it
was silent interest. He never could
make a speech, though he often de-
clared that he would gladly give the
copyright OF his best opera for the
ability to do so.

OF this city met In Central Turner Hall last
night, and after long debate decided that
unless the bosses should, on or before

Mr.. JOHN McGovERN writes as fol
lows IN the Chicago Journal: Stand
ing on the street, medical friend who
was waiting for car came UP, and
offered him some wintergreen lozenges
that was eating. He declined them,
and then proceeded to lecture me as
follows: eff you eat those lozenges
that you have in that paper they will
make you sick. They will produce a
sudden constipation of the bowels,
which will last day or two. Your
appetite for wholesome food will fall
off, your sleep will be disturbed, and
possibly you may have headache
You may feel out of sorts for two or
three days, but you will lay it to every
thing but the lozenges. People
can't be too careful about eat
ing confectionery containing strong
and pungent essences. What T
have said about wintergreen is equal
" true of pepper, peppermint and Gin
namon. CONNECTIONS containing these
favorings might be very good medi-
cines for certain diseases of the bowels.
but to use them as delicacies and re-
freshments is about as wise and ration
al as it would be to eat calomel candy
and opium lozenge about It is
almost as dangerous to eat ready-made
preserves, manufactured by wholesale
and sold in stores. What they are
made of never knew. It is said that
most of them are made ofrefuse cheese.
At any rate, even if they are made of
fruit they are stuffed with drugs to i'm.
prove the color and flavor, and to eat
spoonful of them is to doom yourself
to day or two of constipation, with
all it's attendant evils" [ knew from
experience that what he said was true,
and ! quietly dropped my lozenges in
to an ash-barrel.

THE news of the death in New Or
leans of Mrs. Mary A. Maginnis, wife
of A. A. Maginnis, and eldest daughter
of the late William M. Tweed, says a
New York dispatch, recalled to many
New Workers that lady's magnificent
wedding, which was nine days Won
| der before the crash of the great ring
came. A startling feature of the event
was the extent and costliness of the
presents which the bride received from
city officials and politicians of the day.
The wedding took place in the fall of
1868, two years before the crash, at
Tweed's then unpretentious residence
on Thirty-sixth street It was held in
the afternoon. At that time, to the
public, Tweed was merely Deputy
Commissioner of Public Works, but in
politics he was "The Boss, and conse-
quently for the afternoon city business
was almost entirely suspended, while
all interested focked to the residence.
1t was great crush, house full of
flowers, charming bride, and room
full of magnificent presents. The
floral display was something that had
never been equaled in the city. Those
who succeeded in getting in had a fine
time, and saw Tweed in one of his hap
piest and best moods. The bride
looked charming, being blonde, and
fine looking. The wedding presents
from the brides father was check for
large amount and the deed for house
and lot in New Orleans. The members
of the American Club gave the bride
an elegant present The total value
of the presents mounted away above
